Oh what fun it is to go to work (in China town...) with a coffee in your hand. 🎢 Hey! #coffeeinspiration #babysteps
Look who I got to see tonight! So good to see some Melbourne musicians here in Yokohama! I went out to see my friend James play trombone in the Aaron Choulai quintet. I was so pleased to meet Marty (on bass) who I was told I should meet in Melbourne. Instead, I got to meet him here! A fun night out with my mum as we both got to use our clutch purses we made in Kyoto. What great musicians! It was a fun night, looking forward to seeing them again.
Carrot muffins ready to bake. No gluten, no eggs but it's all good because there are ways around it.
The kimono I wore yesterday. The clutch purse I made at Kyoto Nishijin textile centre, I also made the origami crane earrings with my dad. This kimono was custom made to fit me. I found the obi (outer sash) and shoes called zori at an antique fair. I have three layers on plus hand towels underneath to straighten the body curves. The goal is for everything to be perfectly shaped and parallel and it is considered beautiful to wrap up in towels and sashes to appear flat and even. No curves! Only the back of the neck shows as the collar is pulled back lower. Also, always make sure to fold the kimono left side over right. It is considered bad luck to have the right side over left as this is when you dress the dead for burial. I had to prepare up to about 17 items to wear my kimono. I should make a checklist for next time as I just went by memory but ended up forgetting a waistband called date-jime. I even found a big clip that was left in my kimono that the lady dressing me forgot to pull out! Ouch! So a kimono is not the most comfortable thing to wear, but it's good fun! #ootd #kimono #ootdkimono #obisash
Another kimono day. I wore the earrings I made!
πŸ‘€ Guess what??? Well firstly, I was so thankful to sit out in the sun on this beautiful morning... And for the first time in six months I slept at night and I feel incredible! I had a good five to six hours of sweet sweet deep deep sleep!!!! I was able to remember what it is like to be out of bed in the morning, have breakfast and a coffee, feel no pain or discomfort, have my energy and skin back and get things done!! What a special day. I've come so far and I've done so well (if I may say so myselfπŸ€—) I even get to start back with some work today finally! Yay 😊 Thank you everyone who has thought about me, prayed for me and helped me through some of these rough times. #tsw #topicalsteroidwithdrawal #health #eczema #sweetsleep #tswwarrior #itsan #threeyearjourney

To the #TSW community, I've been through two major TSW episodes over the years (topical steroids) and finally have most of my skin back but now I have to deal with more internal symptoms from oral steroids. I'm finding it too hard to cope now, it has been about 5-6 months since coming off prednisone (I was on them for 6 months) and the bad skin flare ups are mostly gone but I struggle with extreme nausea everyday since April, night sweats/sweating/weeping of skin and very bad attacks with something like hives? I'm not sure what it was but it's burning skin that makes me scream! I've had many good days recently, my diet is good and healthy I have tried juicing etc. I haven't slept a single night since April and sleeping pills made me flare up/relapse and they made me feel wide awake rather than sleepy. Please share how long it took you to finally get over the withdrawal symptoms. What do you experience? Did you find anything to help you sleep? Antihistamines don't seem to be effective right now when they used to help me sleep. How did you cope? Please share! I'm finding it very difficult to cope this week and I'd like to reach out and speak to others in the same situation. You are the ones who understand. I've been so positive .... it's taking just a bit too long!! All the best on your journey! I have many more questions!! #topicalsteroidwithdrawal #prednisone #prednisoneproblems #eczema #tswwarrior #eczemarecoveryjourney #eczemasupport #tswwarrior #oralsteroids #prednisolone #tswrecovery
